After many years of planning, the Thornhill sewer project is another step closer to becoming a reality.

At its March 20 board meeting, the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine board voted in favour of amending two bylaws about the sewer system and the financing of it.

Costs are estimated at $3.4 million.

Currently, upper and lower Thornhill residents have independent on-site septic systems.

Thats excluding homes and businesses on the south side of the Thornhill Creek Bridge and on Churchhill St., which had a sewer system put in after a bylaw was approved in 1994.

That bylaw allowed for the expansion of the sewer system as money became available.

The Thornhill core area is this next phase of the sewer system and includes from Thornhill Creek Bridge on Queensway over the CN tracks, up on Substation Road all the way across to the Skeena Landing hotel across the four-way stop, and goes down the Thornhill Frontage Road to Husky next to where the new hotel is being built and across the highway as far as the Chevron station.

That area also takes in the Northern Motor Inn, down Paquette St. and the west side for the community zoned properties.

The rest is here:
